Aside from a few minor accidents, the morning commute went relatively smoothly on Tuesday as snow began to spread across Connecticut.

Between 2 and 4 inches of light and fluffy snow are expected on Tuesday, said FOX CT Meteorologist Rachel Frank. Snow was falling throughout central Connecticut before 9 a.m., and 83 accidents — eight with minor injuries — had been reported on state roads by 11:30 a.m., according to the state police.

And forecasters are saying that the state should brace for significantly colder weather later in the week, possibly followed by a weekend snowstorm.
